6.2.7 Neighbourhood centre

6.2.7.1 Application

This code applies to development where the code is identified as applicable in a table of assessment.

When using this code, reference should be made to section 5.3.2 and where applicable, section 5.3.3 located in Part 5.

6.2.7.2 Purpose

  1. The purpose of the Neighbourhood Centre zone code is to provide for a small mix of land uses to service residential neighbourhoods. It includes small–scale convenience shopping, professional offices, community services and other uses that directly support the immediate community. Development in this zone must:
    1. Provide for accessible, convenient and attractive retail, commercial, administrative and community activities at a scale that does not compromise the viability of the Principal centre zone or the Centre zones.
    2. Provide for clusters of non–residential uses surrounded by residential areas that provide a mix of uses to support the day to day convenience and community needs of surrounding residents.
    3. Manage the interface between centre activities and adjoining residential activities.
    4. Promote high quality centre design that maximises access by active and public transport and activates streets and public spaces.
  2. The purpose of the zone will be achieved through the following overall outcomes:
    1. Small–scale convenience retail, commercial and community uses servicing the local community are provided. Large format retail uses are not supported in this zone.
    2. Limited residential uses such as dwelling units can occur in conjunction with centre activities.
    3. Limited after hours activities are supported where compatible with surrounding residential activities.
    4. Development is designed to incorporate sustainable practices including maximising energy efficiency, water conservation and public/active transport use.
    5. Development provides a high level of amenity and is reflective of the surrounding character of the area.
    6. Development encourages public transport accessibility and use, walking and cycling.
    7. Development has access to development infrastructure and essential services.
    8. Development responds to land constraints, including but not limited to topography, bushfire and flooding.
    9. Natural features such as creeks, gullies, waterways, wetlands, habitats, vegetation and bushland are retained, enhanced and buffered from the impacts of adjacent uses and any unavoidable impacts are minimised through location, design, operation and management requirements.
